Trouble Maker Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 You know normally I agree with you but I'll have to take the other side of the fence on this one. If there was a date it was said to be done which it sounds like there was per this post, then why couldn't Jason call him and let him know it would be a few days longer as well? Business paractices like that will go a long way for yourself. I knew someone would post this but I didn't feel like typing anymore when I typed that. I completely agree that Jason should have called and let them know and that is a very good business practice and how a place should be run. I think on the business side he completely dropped the ball on this one. If it were me, even if I didn't call to check, I would want some sort of compensation. On the other hand, the guys from Cleveland completely drooped the ball on the common sense side on this one. If it were me, I would have definitely called to check before wasting half of my day. Hell, I do that when I'm getting something worked on 20 minutes away and it's 'supposed' to be done. It wouldn't have been that hard for either side to pick up a phone and hit the key pad 10 little times. All's Jason not calling cost him was looking a little bad on here. The guys from Cleveland cost themselves, at least 20 bucks in gas, at least 10 in food, and however much 5 hours of their time and their frustration over the situation is worth. Considering that most people in Cleveland make 6.75 an hour, that comes to a grand total of about $100. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

500HP RX-7 Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 When I talked with the customer on Friday I said it should be done on Monday and that I would talk to him then. If I had said just come on down Monday morning then I would have called him over the weekend to let him know what was up. Maybe he took what I had said the wrong way.

Kurt B. Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 You mean you drove all of the way down to Columbus to pick up an engine that was supposed to be done but you didn't call to check? I think you are the ones that need flamed, but I think driving 5 hours instead of making a phone 30 second phone call, then being dumb enough to admit it to a bunch of people, is punishment enough. It takes you 5 hours to drive to Cleveland? Shit, I wanna race you, its a sure win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Yeah, like I said, it doesn't matter, it happens. Im pretty sure Billy would rather have you take your guys time and do everything right then try to rush it anyways. The orignal point of the thread was to say how baller Columbus is because they have a Budwiser factory and smooth streight highways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think of this, but it keeps going and going and going, with no places besides like exits for cops to hide on from what I can tell.
